The unit develops students' ability to read, interpret and use corporate financial reports and other relevant information such as internal accounting reports. The unit is primarily concerned with developing a strong understanding of accounting concepts and issues from perspectives both internal and external to the entity. This understanding can then be applied to a range of theoretical and practical problems often encountered by managers. The student's appreciation of the complexities of financial measurement, accounting policy selection, and techniques of managerial accounting is developed using case studies and practical problems. No previous accounting background is assumed.
